Abstract

Iterative reconstruction (IR) has the ability to reduce image noise in CT without compromising diagnostic quality, which permits a significant reduction in effective radiation dose. This been increasingly integrated into clinical CT practice over the past 7 years and has been particularly important in the field of cardiac CT with multiple vendors introducing cardiac CT–compatible IR algorithms. The following review will summarize the principles of IR algorithms, studies validating their noise- and dose-reducing abilities, and the specific applications of IR in cardiac CT.
